Publisher's Synopsis

Letters From Sir Robert Cecil To Sir George Carew is a collection of personal correspondence between two prominent figures in English politics during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Sir Robert Cecil, the Secretary of State under Queen Elizabeth I and King James I, exchanged letters with Sir George Carew, a diplomat and military commander who served in Ireland and England.The letters in this book cover a wide range of topics, including political events, military campaigns, personal matters, and even gossip about other members of the court. They offer a fascinating glimpse into the inner workings of the English government and the personal relationships that shaped it.Cecil and Carew were both highly intelligent and skilled in their respective fields, and their letters demonstrate a keen understanding of the political and military challenges facing England at the time. They also reveal the personal ambitions and rivalries that drove many of their actions.Overall, Letters From Sir Robert Cecil To Sir George Carew is a valuable resource for historians and scholars interested in the politics and culture of early modern England. It provides a unique perspective on the lives and careers of two influential figures, and sheds light on the complex relationships that shaped the course of English history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
